Ninja'd!

Airsreams have such an iconic look so when I decided I wanted to crystallize the logo, none other then the Crystal Ninja would do. I'm incredibly fortunate to have met Kellie a number of years back when we were both doing art shows. I'm also lucky that she lives near me.

I sent off a photo and she recommended the sizes. I chose light gold metallic and I couldn't be happier, it is entirely what I envisioned.

Here are the unadorned letters

The Ninja, Kellie DeFries at work

The beautiful result! I love it.

Kellie patiently tutored me in the stone placement and I applied the stones to the second R, copying her placement. Kellie really has the eye for how to best place the stones, but I was able to do a fair job under her guidance. We'll be an airstream event in Tucson so I started with the front. I'll do the back logo when I have a little more time. Thanks Kellie! A beautiful job as always.
